Supporting Materials

Genova's SIBO Profiles are non-invasive breath tests which capture exhaled hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4) gases following patient ingestion of a Lactulose Rx solution to evaluate small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO).

Clinicians have the option of a 2 or 3-hour SIBO assessment. The 3-hour SIBO profile provides insight into gas levels over a longer time frame and is recommended for patients with slower gastrointestinal transit or constipation. Additionally, a flatline result in the third hour could indicate the presence of hydrogen sulfide gas.

SIBO is a common clinical condition characterized by excessive bacteria in the small intestine and can develop in a variety of patient populations.

Symptoms and conditions commonly associated with SIBO include:

Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) is associated with symptoms such as bloating, gas, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, and dyspepsia, and is linked to conditions like IBS, IBD, Celiac Disease, diabetes, fibromyalgia, rosacea, Parkinson’s disease, and obesity. Risk factors include intestinal motility disorders, chronic pancreatitis, structural abnormalities, gastroenteritis, immunocompromise, reduced digestive secretions (e.g., with PPI use), and ileocecal valve dysfunction. If left untreated, SIBO can result in complications such as malabsorption and leaky gut.

Symptoms and conditions commonly associated with SIBO include

Bloating/distension, gas, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, dyspepsia, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), celiac disease, diabetes, fibromyalgia, rosacea, Parkinson's disease, and obesity.

Risk factors for development of SIBO include

Intestinal motility disorders, chronic pancreatitis, abdominal structural/anatomic issues, gastroenteritis, immunocompromise, decreased bacteriostatic digestive secretions (HCl, pancreatic enzymes, bile acids) such as with PPI use, and ileocecal valve dysfunction are risk factors for SIBO, which if left untreated can lead to malabsorption and leaky gut.
